Product Description

Building and maintaining muscle is an arduous, uphill task. That’s because part of building up is breaking down, and maintaining a positive balance between the two can be challenging.

But, what if you could work out longer and harder, and with greater recovery – both during and between workouts – and no longer waste muscle? What if you could build it without the uphill battle you normally have?

HMB corrals these workout benefits in all of the following areas:

Strength increases in less time*
Enhanced muscle recovery and support, during and between workouts*
Increase training endurance to enable longer, more intense workouts*
HMB is among the most researched of nutritional supplements – with studies focusing on men and women, young and old, athlete and non-athlete. Clinical studies consistently show that HMB supports significant increases in muscle mass – resulting in more strength – when combined with resistance training.*

For anyone engaging in resistance training over time, it’s clear that muscle mass is in a continual state of flux – both in periods of building, and as it is broken down. In order to measure and assess an overall change in muscle mass (mass gains or losses) it requires a realistic look at the following equation:

It is a fact that hard, consistent training, along with sufficient protein supply, will yield muscle gains. But, when overtraining occurs, and muscle breakdown surpasses its ability to recover naturally, changes in muscle mass eventually fall into the negative (loss) column where hard-earned gains in muscle mass are sacrificed.

HMB is a key metabolite of the essential Branched Chain Amino Acid (BCAA) L-Leucine – the most important to building and retaining muscle. Regular, consistent supplementation with HMB has been clinically shown to support significant increases in muscle mass and strength, when combined with resistance training.

MRM® HMB 1000 enables increases in strength within shorter periods of time, assists muscle recovery both during workouts (between sets) and in the time between workouts. It also supports improvements in endurance during workouts.*

Training capacity and recovery support are enhanced by HMB when taken with a protein source in an amount of 2 to 3 grams per day**. That daily dose should be divided into two to three equal portions and taken at strategic times throughout the day.

Ideal times to take MRM® HMB 1000:

First thing in the morning
One hour prior to resistance training to reduce muscle damage during workouts*
Just before bed
(*The clinically recommended daily dose of HMB is 2 to 3 grams)

For even greater results, stack MRM® HMB 1000 with pre-workout MRM® ATP, or with MRM® Creatine – or use any combination of two or three. HMB is proven to work in synergy with other well-researched mass-building supplements – considered more effective than individual ingredients alone.*

HMB stands for ß-hydroxy ß-methylbutyrate, which is naturally produced in our bodies during the metabolism of the essential amino acid leucine. Being a Leucine derivative, HMB supports muscle synthesis through multiple mechanisms including the mTOR pathway.*

Many studies have been performed using HMB and the results indicate that HMB assists muscle growth by decreasing muscle breakdown and decreasing the ubiquitinproteasome proteolytic pathway during intense training.

HMB users have consistently improved strength, reduced muscle damage and have also improved body composition with exercise when compared with control test subjects.* Research suggests that HMB supplementation also provides benefits to runners, cyclists, and other endurance-training individuals.*

What is the daily-suggested use?

Take one serving 2-3 times daily with protein for maximum benefits.

Is this product safe for consumption while pregnant or nursing?

Due to the lack of clinical data, MRM HMB is not recommended for women who trying to get pregnant, are pregnant, or are nursing. MRM recommends informing your doctor of any supplement you take or plan to take if you are pregnant or nursing.

What is the safe age for people to use this product?

MRM’s HMB is intended for adults over the age of 18.

Can HMB benefit women?

Research has indicated that women that take HMB in conjunction with exercise and resistance training saw benefits in strength and body composition.
